Yes, eugh.

Probably because the recent weather has been so cold, but in the last
couple of weeks a couple of times I've discovered a slug asleep
clinging to the tiled wall of the shower Since I found the first one I
keep the bifold door fully closed, and wear my glasses into the
bathroom and check before going in. They still arrive. Where on earth
can they be coming from?

We don't get slugs but every time I use the bath/shower theres woodlice
and spiders in it. Found a huge centipede too the other day.

I think they come up the plughole. I've never actually checked because
they don't bother me, but there's a squashed lead pipe on the outside
which, I'm guessing, doesn't have a trap under the bath, so they can
just crawl up it and get cozy.

I scoop them up with a old loo roll and toss them down the toilet.

Poor dears. You could at least bung em out the window.

Insects generally fall from tiled or, smooth walls and once in the bath
cannot climb the smooth bath surface. Leave a strip of cloth (read,
towel) over the bath edge into the bath bottom.
